Viewed with fear by other races, the Zhodani are believed to harbour powerful psionics within a terrible and oppressive society. Alien Module 4: Zhodani peels back the layers of mystery and mis-information to reveal a fascinating race who are a domineering force in their region of the galaxy.

This book is packed with information for both players and referees. New rules for careers allow players to create their own Zhodani characters, which are then well served by technology and ships designed by and for the Zhodani. Chapters are devoted to playing a Zhodani and how their society and culture are structured, complete with how they handle psionics. Finally, we have also included a complete new sector to explore, meshing seamlessly with the Spinward Marches.

Zhodani covers the necessary human villains of the Original Traveller Universe. While the game elements presented within, and the fluff as well, are given well and really immerse one in the Zhodani culture, this book has one major flaw. The artwork [...]

This book contains everything you need to know about the inhabitants of that area to Spinward and Coreward of the Third Imperium - the Zhodani. As with other Mongoose Traveller Alien Modules, Mongoose Traveller Alien Module 4 (MTAM4) has a familiar [...]

I found this book useful. My current Adventures take place in the Foreven sector and the Zhodz are the largest land holders in the Sector. It also let me know what absolute bastards these FMing SOB's are! [...]

These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format

These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
